Mindless prehistoric killers from the deep or slick sophisticated predators? Sharks are responsible for fewer than 10 deaths per year, so why are we so terrified of them? This programme celebrates the extraordinary array of senses and skills that have evolved over 400 million years, allowing the shark to roam not just across the tropics, but as far as the upper reaches of the Amazon and under the arctic ice! Through 8 sharks, filmed as far apart as Hawaii, Australia, South Africa and Greenland, we will change your perceptions for ever!

The series unravels the mysteries behind the planet’s most unprecedented and shocking natural events.

Footage of real-life rescues captured by the rescuers themselves as they put their lives on the line saving others.

On any street, behind any smile, lurks an American Monster. Never-before-seen-video footage looks straight into the eyes of a killer, hidden in plain sight. Mom next door; dad across the street; the kid who never broke the rules. Anyone can be a monster.
